I think all is working again now. Please leave a comment on a photo somewhere if something you need is not working still.

Now that we have a pilot it is ready to fly. Will try tomorrow if the weather holds.

plaster pilot parts removed from plaster mold. I used non stick cooking spray as the mold release.

Oh, I have had my share of crashes and repairs as well, so I can relate.

Xanadu, Thanks for the concern. I you aare going to fly them you are going to crash them occasionally. This one was hard to figure since I flew a peanut scale of the Cessna C 34 for several years and it was quite stable and is still in perfect shape. The RC version seems to be cursed but is ready to try to fly again.

OUCH..........sorry to see this happened.

Sometimes things just don't work out. Its been repaired and I'll try again.

I hope the Hellcat flight goes this well, not like the next picture.

Creosotewind, good point. Actually, the field I fly from has thick grass which has saved many a plane. I'll share pictures of the flight attempts regardless of how they turn out.

Looks like a great model. I'd find a smoother landing strip, though.

It's ready to fly weight is 5.8 ounces, the target was 6 ounces. First flight will have to wait until I get back from Europe.
